Have you ever wondered how something so rare, so fine, so admirable and so valuable can come out of an animal, a shelled invertebrate animal? All sorts of shades and colours: white, pink, silver, brown, blue, red, black, yellow, orange, gold and purple.
The most valuable pearls occur spontaneously in the wild they say, and you, you remind me of one. You may not be like the famous ‘La Peregrina – The Incomparable’ but you’re one in 10,000 wild oysters containing a pearl.
Whether wild or cultured, you’re different and special and the world loves you just the way you are. So, let us gather our pearls together and guard them jealously lest the pigs trample them under their feet.
Collectively, we can build a better society for every soul is unique, precious and valuable.

Thank you for reading.
Don’t let anyone or anything change your good character.
This I totally agree with.
I love this post! Yes, we’re all uniquely different but we’re all needed in our separate sectors of the world. I’d like to also add you rarely just see one pearl but pearls shining together so you don’t have to dim your light but rather shine with others as well.
A beautiful addition Emem. Thank you for reading.
Thank you so so much aunty Ekamma!
This means a lot.
Thank you too Emy for reading.
We are unique but people should not hide under the pretence of “that’s who I am” when they are not living up to expectations.
We should not hide under that shadow when corrected to do the right thing.
I come in peace
I totally agree with you. We need to find a balance and apply wisdom where necessary. In our individuality, there is room for change, adaptation and growth.
True words!
This is awesome, welcome back
Loving the vibes especially in these words… “So, let us gather our pearls together and guard them jealously lest the pigs trample them under their feet.
Collectively, we can build a better society for every soul is unique, precious and valuable.”
Well done work
